Sir Richard Branson’s Virgin Group is potentially eyeing a move into the Thai aviation market, according to a Bangkok Post news report.
Branson made a flying visit to Bangkok over the weekend to publicise the launch of the Virgin Active health club brand in the capital.
Virgin has opened three health clubs in the city and has operated two successful radio stations in Bangkok for more than a decade.
We are just starting beautiful health clubs here in Thailand. One day, I expect to fly our airlines in the Kingdom," Branson said.
"I would love to operate flights, one day, to connect to Australia via here."
After entering the Australia market 15 years ago with a single aircraft Virgin Australia now has a 35% share of the market.
